Update on Harley - He is still alive. By the grace of ? * I will leave out the details of his looks - I can't really bare to type it. I have no words truly at this point. He cannot swim, his body looks as though he has been through a collision. I talked to my Daughter about him and she said Mom he is so old. Maybe he is hanging on for You. She said you have to tell him its okay ..he can go to heaven. Monkeys - I took my Daughter's advise and told him... I even took him out of his water and Kissed his forehead. I don't know. * I don't want to talk about it any longer I guess. Its just too debilitating.

Rest in Peace CayleeNatalee, We will never forget.Zahra, run with the AngelsPUT ON YOUR BIG GIRL PANTIES AND GET OVER IT! It's not about you or me.....It's about the Missing and the Murdered

My son just told me this morning that they had a miscarriage. They are at the hospital right now.

My first Grandbaby. I'm so sad.

Please say a prayer for them both.

Prayers of comfort for all of you.

The story is told of a king who came visiting another monarch, as a gesture of friendship. As the visiting king was leaving, he was given a parting gift, a beautiful plant. It was almost ready to bloom. When the king arrived at his own palace, he instructed his head gardener to tend the plant so that it could show off its lovely flower. He had been told that the bud, which would burst into bloom, was the most beautiful flower in the world. The gardener did as he was told; in fact, he took care of it better than any other plant in the king's garden. He watered and fertilized and the bud grew larger and larger. One day the gardener went out of his way to tell the king that it might bloom by the next morning. But early the next morning, when the gardener ran to see how the blossom looked, the flower was missing. The gardener was beside himself! What in the world could he tell the king? He had done all that he was instructed to do -- so reluctantly, he went to report the disappearance to the king. As he entered the kingís presence, there stood the plant with its beautiful bloom. The gardener was of course disappointed, because he had wanted to tell the king the plant had bloomed. But then he realized that the plant had only been loaned to him for a short while -- to take care of while it was being nurtured.

Sister I won't post it here - I will go to where you post " Inspirational stories" - I would love if you would read and reply. Thank you.

Deenie, just want you to know I have printed out the story you so lovingly shared with us. I need to do some more thinking . . . have no fear, I will answer. Kindly know I do believe in the forces of evil, however, the saints do not come back to "haunt" anyone. What I believe your brother is sensing is his own conscience and the thoughts that led him down the road he chose. Again, really need to think about this some more.

Thank you Sister. I have to tell you that this is bothering my daughter very much. She is caught in the middle of all this and she feels stuck and sad. I so do appreciate your kindness and efforts. Lord I am up again all night into the next .. Harley turned for the worse this afternoon. His outer mouth swelled to the point he could barely open it. Its gone down as of an hour or so ago. Since 8am I have been changing his water, syringe feeding him and keeping him comfortable. I don't know what I would be doing if I wasn't a Monkey. I have been typing my brains out here all day- He is less than two feet from my pc. He is bleeding internally so bad today. I have him stable in his sick tank. His sick tank is very small 5 gallon. Since he cannot swim I have him in it. Have to keep changing up his water ..because his little body is so toxic. Kinda a like having a high fever ..God bless his precious soul. He knows when I talk to him. He scooches to me when I put my lips up to the glass of the tank.. still. Just as he has always done. In fact its time for a bit of fresh water .. Thank You Sister for your Prayers for my " Hoho" Thank You all who are Praying for Him

I offer back my Love Support and Prayers to all who are in need - and Even if you do not need it. I send it with Peace.

My thoughts and prayers, I can feel your pain, and I'm so sorry

NoRose, I am so glad you are here. Sharing in each other's pain, as well as joys, makes this place such a sanctuary.FloryTreasure, thank you so much for your continued prayers for my family. I believe it is the best we can do for others when we pray with a heart filled with the love of Jesus.Deenie, I read your post in the other thread. I need to think and pray about what you wrote. You will be astounded by the parells in our family dynamics. My Dad was a superb whistler too. Had never heard Big Rock Candy Mountain before. I love it!! I do a lot of singing myself.Di, continued prayers throughout the days . . .

John 8:12When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

THE LIGHTHOUSE

There's a Lighthouse on the hillsideThat over looks life's seaAnd when I'm tossed it sends out a lightThat I might seeAnd the light that shines in darkness nowWill safely lead us homeIf it wasn't for the LighthouseMy ship would be no more

And I thank God for the LighthouseI owe my life to HimFor Jesus is the LighthouseAnd from the rocks of sinHe has shone a light around meThat I could clearly seeIf it wasn't for the LighthouseWhere would this ship be?

Everybody that lives about usSays tear that Lighthouse downThe big ships don't sail this way anymoreThere's no use of it standing roundThen my mind goes back to that stormy nightWhen just in time I saw the lightYes, the light from that old LighthouseThat stands up there on the hill

And I thank God for the LighthouseI owe my life to HimFor Jesus is the LighthouseAnd from the rocks of sinHe has shone a light around meThat I could clearly seeIf it wasn't for the LighthouseWhere would this ship be?

For all those who read or lurk here in the Prayer room - that have issues of self, current and or held to memories of an That find their Today " encompassed with thoughts " of questions without answers. I too feel this way many days .. I find this song. Listen to it.

26.Josh 1:9Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

You Will Never Walk Alone

When you walk through a stormHold your head up highAnd don't be afraid of the darkAt the end of the stormIs a golden skyAnd the sweet silver song of the lark

Walk on through the windWalk on through the rainThough your dreams be tossed and blownWalk on walk on with hope in your heartAnd you'll never walk aloneYou'll never walk alone

Walk on through the windWalk on through the rainThough your dreams be tossed and blownWalk on walk on with hope in your heartAnd you'll never walk aloneYou'll never walk

You'll never walkYou'll never walk alone.
